Document of socket.type says: The socket type. https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.socket.type OK, so, are SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK socket type? These two constants, if defined, can be combined with the socket types and allow you to set some flags atomically... https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.SOCK_CLOEXEC So they are not socket type. They are constants which can be used for setting some flags. Regarding to this document, I think this can be bugfix rather than behavior change.
